Hua Yuanzhao's eyes turned cold. If it wasn't absolutely necessary, she would never dare to let others know that someone broke into her room at night.

Otherwise, based on the personalities of the mother and daughter, who knows what they would do!

But I can’t care about that now! It’s important to ask for help!

Hua Yuanzhao made up his mind and bent his knees to push against someone's vulnerable spot.

The man in black was so frightened that he quickly raised his body to avoid it, and his hands relaxed for a moment.

Hua Yuanzhao seized the opportunity and a scalpel with a cold glow appeared in his hand for no apparent reason, and the blade was stabbing towards the hand that was pressing on him.

The man in black suddenly got a wound on his hand. He hissed in pain and quickly let go.

This woman is still as vicious as ever!

He covered Hua Yuanzhao's mouth with one hand. His body was unsupported for a moment, and most of his body fell on Hua Yuanzhao.

Hua Yuanzhao seized the opportunity and stabbed the man in the face with the scalpel in one hand.

The man in black was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat and shouted, "It's me! Rong Xiu! Not an assassin!"

Hua Yuanzhao's movements came to an abrupt halt, with the tip of the knife less than half an inch away from the black-clad man's forehead.

Rong Xiu breathed a sigh of relief, and said hoarsely through gritted teeth: "I have something serious to talk to you about! This is a misunderstanding."

Hua Yuanzhao squinted his eyes and held his breath, but his hand holding the knife did not relax at all.

"I'm letting you go now, so don't move around or let anyone know, okay?" Rong Xiu asked in a low voice, "Just nod your head if you agree."

Hua Yuanzhao nodded with difficulty, and indeed felt the hand covering his mouth slowly moving away.

The moment Rong Xiu let go, Hua Yuanzhao stabbed at him again with the knife in his hand.

——Whoever you are! You bastard!

Rong Xiu was so angry that his head hurt. He quickly grabbed her hand and pressed her down again, saying in a hoarse voice: "It's wrong for me to offend you, but I really didn't peek on purpose!"

Who knew she would take a bath at this time! Besides... the bathtub was so high, he couldn't see anything...

The tips of Rong Xiu's ears turned red and the itchiness in her nose became more severe. Suddenly, a warm nosebleed started to flow down.

He was startled, and hurriedly stood up, covering his nose and sitting up, saying awkwardly: "I just inhaled your gas, and my nose is uncomfortable! I really didn't see anything!"

Died unjustly!

Hua Yuanzhao sat up and sneered at the scene: "The dignified prince of the Zhenguo Duke turned out to be a filthy hooligan who came to visit in the middle of the night!"

But why did the voice just now sound so much like the person I met in Huguo Temple that night?

If she hadn't recognized the jade pendant on Gu Ci, she would have thought that the person that night was him!

Rong Xiu covered his nose and looked at Hua Yuanzhao awkwardly, and said tentatively: "How about I take responsibility? As long as you nod, I will let the matchmaker come to propose marriage tomorrow!"

"Get lost!" Hua Yuanzhao said without even raising his head, "I won't marry you!"

Hua Yuanzhao looked at him coldly, frowned and asked, "You said you have something important to talk to me about?"

She wanted to see what Rong Xiu wanted to do by climbing over the wall to find her in the middle of the night. If the latter couldn't explain it...

She then changed to throwing sulfuric acid!

"There's a dead body. I'd like to ask Miss Hua for help to take a look." Rong Xiu said bluntly, covering his nose and feeling too guilty to look at her.

"Now?" Hua Yuanzhao asked with a frown, temporarily suppressing his unhappiness.

She owed the person a favor and had said that she would use her medical skills to pay it back. Now that the person had come to her, there was no reason for her not to accept the favor.

What's more, the choking effect of the contents of the spray bottle is only secondary. In fact, it is more harmful to the eyes. Since the eyes of this person are fine, he should have kept his eyes closed at the time...

He has some morals at least!

"Now." Rong Xiu said, "It is indeed a bit urgent. I hope Miss Hua will forgive me for my indiscretion."

After hearing the man speak in human language, Hua Yuanzhao's expression looked better, and she quietly put away the scalpel that had been held in her hand.

"Go wait behind the screen." Hua Yuanzhao said unhappily, and threw two cotton balls to someone to plug his nose.

She changed her wet clothes, wrapped her hair with a scarf, and then walked towards Rong Xiu: "How do we get out?"

"I'll take you." Rong Xiu was slightly stunned when he saw her dressed like this, and asked, "Doesn't the Hua family give you money to buy jewelry? Why are you coming out wrapped in rags?"

Hua Yuanzhao's eyelids twitched when he heard this, and he opened his mouth to offer a price: "Ten taels."

"What?" Rong Xiu was stunned.

"Ten taels for each shot, and the cost of medicine for saving lives is extra." Hua Yuanzhao reached out and picked up his medicine box: "If you need anything in the future, ask Fuling to pass on the message. We'll have to deal with tonight's incident next time..."

Hua Yuanzhao glanced at Rongxiu and suddenly sneered.

Her research institute is short of human specimens!

Rong Xiu shuddered at her gaze and quickly took out a silver ingot from his sleeve: "Here."

"This time I'll consider it my repayment of the favor, and I'll start charging you from next time." Hua Yuanzhao didn't answer. He walked to the door and asked Rong Xiu, who was standing there stupidly, "Are you still leaving?"

Rong Xiu touched his nose, pursed his lips and led the way in front, leading her out of the door through a small path avoiding the patrolling servants.

Shihu was waiting in the alley with his carriage, and he heaved a sigh of relief when he saw the two men come out smoothly.

He said that this little ancestor would not be able to resist visiting the boudoir at night!

Isn’t it coming?

And this look... Could it be that he was beaten up by Miss Hua because he was a hooligan?

After they got on the carriage, Rong Xiu said, "Today, a maid in the palace went crazy in front of everyone and jumped into the river. She died as soon as she was pulled out."

Hua Yuanzhao frowned: "You want to know why she went crazy?"

This is not easy to check, and I'm afraid I'll need to use instruments.

"I know that maid. She is a good swimmer. She wouldn't have drowned the moment she jumped into the river." Rong Xiu pondered and said, "Besides, I was at the scene at the time. I always feel that her death was strange."

Rong Xiu asked: "Can you tell the cause of death?"
